Future Outcomes

Predictive analytics extract important factors and patterns from historical data to predict future outcomes. This paper presents predictive analytics of university student intake using supervised methods. Every year, universities face a lot of academic offer rejection by the applicants. Hence, this research aims to predict student acceptance and rejection towards academic offer given by a university using supervised methods subject to past student intake data. To solve this problem, a lot of past studies had been reviewed starting from nineties era till now. From the analysis, two algorithms had been selected namely Decision Tree and k Nearest Neighbor. The dataset of past student intake was obtained with fifteen attributes, which are applicants’ gender, applicants studied stream during <em>Sijil Peperiksaan Malaysia</em>(SPM), university campuses, applicants’ hometown, disability, campus visit, course choice order in application form, applicant’s six SPM subjects result, orphan and status of acceptance. Several experiments were implemented to find the best model to predict the student’s offer acceptance by evaluating the model accuracy. Both models yield best accuracy at 66 percent with the selected attributes. This research gives a huge impact in selecting which applicants is suitable to be offered as well as adapting the university’s academic offering process in much intelligence way in the future.

Healthcare is a major sector where there is demand for predictive analytics using machine learning. Healthcare will be largely benefited when useful knowledge can be transferred into timely action to manage hazardous situations in medical sector. Chronic kidney disease is a life threatening disease which can be prevented with timely right predictions and appropriate precautionary measures. In this paper, various machine learning classifiers are applied on the medical dataset to develop a prediction model to tell if a person's present medical condition can lead to the chronic stage of the disease in future. The higher prediction accuracy and decreased build time is obtained with reduced feature set attributes by applying Best First and Greedy stepwise algorithm combined with different classification techniques like Naive Bayes ,Support vector machine (SVM), J48, Random Forest, and K Nearest Neighbor(KNN).

Prescriptive Analytics

This paper studies the integration of predictive and prescriptive analytics framework for deriving decision from data. Traditionally, in predictive analytics, the purpose is to derive prediction of unknown parameters from data using statistics and machine learning, and in prescriptive analytics, the purpose is to derive a decision from known parameters using optimization technology. These have been studied independently, but the effect of the prediction error in predictive analytics on the decision-making in prescriptive analytics has not been clarified. We propose a modeling framework that integrates machine learning and robust optimization. The proposed algorithm utilizes the k-nearest neighbor model to predict the distribution of uncertain parameters based on the observed auxiliary data. The enclosing minimum volume ellipsoid that contains k-nearest neighbors of is used to form the uncertainty set for the robust optimization formulation. We illustrate the data-driven decision-making framework and our novel robustness notion on a two-stage linear stochastic programming under uncertain parameters. The problem can be reduced to a convex programming, and thus can be solved to optimality very efficiently by the off-the-shelf solvers.

Arabia is the largest peninsula in the world, with >3000 species of vascular plants. Not much effort has been made to generate a multi-locus marker barcode library to identify and discriminate the recorded plant species. This study aimed to determine the reliability of the available Arabian plant barcodes (>1500; rbcL and matK) at the public repository (NCBI GenBank) using the unsupervised and supervised methods. Comparative analysis was carried out with the standard dataset (FINBOL) to assess the methods and markers’ reliability. Our analysis suggests that from the unsupervised method, TaxonDNA’s All Species Barcode criterion (ASB) exhibits the highest accuracy for rbcL barcodes, followed by the matK barcodes using the aligned dataset (FINBOL). However, for the Arabian plant barcode dataset (GBMA), the supervised method performed better than the unsupervised method, where the Random Forest and K-Nearest Neighbor (gappy kernel) classifiers were robust enough. These classifiers successfully recognized true species from both barcode markers belonging to the aligned and alignment-free datasets, respectively. The multi-class classifier showed high species resolution following the two classifiers, though its performance declined when employed to recognize true species. Similar results were observed for the FINBOL dataset through the supervised learning approach; overall, matK marker showed higher accuracy than rbcL. However, the lower rate of species identification in matK in GBMA data could be due to the higher evolutionary rate or gaps and missing data, as observed for the ASB criterion in the FINBOL dataset. Further, a lower number of sequences and singletons could also affect the rate of species resolution, as observed in the GBMA dataset. The GBMA dataset lacks sufficient species membership. We would encourage the taxonomists from the Arabian Peninsula to join our campaign on the Arabian Barcode of Life at the Barcode of Life Data (BOLD) systems. Our efforts together could help improve the rate of species identification for the Arabian Vascular plants.

Technological development, including machine learning, has a huge impact on health through an effective analysis of various chronic diseases for more accurate diagnosis and successful treatment. Kidney disease is a major chronic disease associated with aging, hypertension, and diabetes, affecting people 60 and over. Its major cause is the malfunctioning of the kidney in disposing toxins from the blood. This study analyzes chronic kidney disease using machine learning techniques based on a chronic kidney disease (CKD) dataset from the UCI machine learning data warehouse. CKD is detected using the Apriori association technique for 400 instances of chronic kidney patients with 10-fold-cross-validation testing, and the results are compared across a number of classification algorithms including ZeroR, OneR, naive Bayes, J48, and IBk (k-nearest-neighbor). The dataset is preprocessed by completing and normalizing missing data. The most relevant features are selected from the dataset for improved accuracy and reduced training time. The results for selected features of the dataset indicate 99% detection accuracy for CKD based on Apriori. The identified technique is further tested using four patient data samples to predict their CKD.

Increased interest in the opportunities provided by artificial intelligence and machine learning has spawned a new field of health-care research. The new tools under development are targeting many aspects of medical practice, including changes to the practice of pathology and laboratory medicine. Optimal design in these powerful tools requires cross-disciplinary literacy, including basic knowledge and understanding of critical concepts that have traditionally been unfamiliar to pathologists and laboratorians. This review provides definitions and basic knowledge of machine learning categories (supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning), introduces the underlying concept of the bias-variance trade-off as an important foundation in supervised machine learning, and discusses approaches to the supervised machine learning study design along with an overview and description of common supervised machine learning algorithms (linear regression, logistic regression, Naive Bayes, k-nearest neighbor, support vector machine, random forest, convolutional neural networks).

In Science and Technology Development BCI plays a vital role in the field of Research. Classification is a data mining technique used to predict group membership for data instances. Analyses of BCI data are challenging because feature extraction and classification of these data are more difficult as compared with those applied to raw data. In this paper, We extracted features using statistical Haralick features from the raw EEG data . Then the features are Normalized, Binning is used to improve the accuracy of the predictive models by reducing noise and eliminate some irrelevant attributes and then the classification is performed using different classification techniques such as Naïve Bayes, k-nearest neighbor classifier, SVM classifier using BCI dataset. Finally we propose the SVM classification algorithm for the BCI data set.
